Many of you keep your passwords in your computer. Some use simple lists,How Safe Are Your Passwords? Articles while others use 'password software' programs. But just how safe are your passwords, either way?

Lists and other software usually will let anyone who is using your PC see your passwords. You don’t want to leave your computer unattended. If you have a full time Internet connection, your PC can also be hacked.

Now, there is a better way. A new free desktop (NOT another web browser) toolbar called Magnibar has a number of software tools, including a "Password Vault". Not even You, can see all your passwords until you enter your unique Master Password. Only one master password to remember, and it's safe to leave your PC alone.

The best part is the web icon inside the vault. Click it and be taken directly to the website that needs that stored user ID and password. So, you click the web icon, go to the protected site, then copy and paste both your User ID and Password to enter.

Have a site that wants you to change your password often? Easy with Magnibar and it’s Vault. Use your Master password to open the vault, make any changes, and save your new information. That’s it!

The Vault is 'newbie simple' to use: After installing the free Magnibar, just click the Password Vault button. The first time, you are asked to create a Master Password. Once you have entered that, you can start putting in your site passwords. First you enter(or paste) the protected site’s web link/URL, then type in the user ID and password. Lastly, type a short descriptive name to remember/identify this site. These short site names are displayed in a list in the Vault. Later, you access any site by opening the vault and clicking the icon. That’s it. Simple. Protected.

There's another reason why the Magnibar Password Vault is even better than using other password protection software programs: cost. Yes, Magnibar is totally free software. You don’t have to give your email address, or name, to get Magnibar!

I’ve left the best part to the last: Magnibar comes with over thirty free how-to videos to help you use the vault and all of the software tools that are crammed into this magnificent toolbar. GO get your copy of this free software at http://magnibar.com
